I emailed Sarge to see if he'd mind snapping a photo or two ( he's become quite a good photographer) I may not hear back for a couple of days; It's Jim and Sharon's wedding anniversary!!!! John

Could be a small problem now that I think about it...Allen's motor is not back together yet, so may be a week or two.

Yeah, that's it Last time I saw Allen's set-up, there were a number of "improvements"...the most notable was the electronic fuel injectors being suspended over the tops of the velocity stacks (instead of in the intake manifolds).

But the yellow paint is good for 5/10ths so he's coming out ahead.

Well, I made it by Allen's house last night for a beer or two. I told him I had to use the can...instead, I slipped out to the garage and snapped a couple of photos....

Thought I should report back on the performance form Sacramento....... the only full pass off the trailer was 10.69 @123mph. From then on it was shooting for the 10.90 index. I did do a little tuning after the first pass and picked up .04 in the 1/8 so there is more to come. The car weighed a little over 1800#'s with me in it.
